SALT LAKE CITY (AP) -- Warning that tea party "mischief" may be aiding Democrats this election season, defeated Utah Republican U.S. Sen. Bob Bennett says that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid likely will keep his seat and that the GOP may not win hotly contested Senate races in Colorado or Kentucky either.

In an interview in his home state with The Associated Press, Bennett also suggested that Republicans may not have a clear plan to govern even if they do take control of the Senate this year.

Bennett is hedging on Reid, just in case Reid gets elected. Bennett wants to make sure he can lobby Reid when he starts his new job as a lobbyist, just like all the retired pols do.

FDR could not get Reid re-elected.

All RINOs do exactly this kind of crap when they lose.

That’s why its best that we don’t elect them in the first place.

Is this prediction or a hope on Bennett’s part? Sounds like a bitter old RINO hoping candidates aided by the Tea Party movement fail.

Oh, Boo hoo. Those mean tea party people kicked you out of office so now you’re going to piss on Harry Reid’s opponent because she has tea party backing. Boo friggin’ hoo.

If you’d been more of a man, Bennet, you’d still have your job.

Well - Nancy Pelosi, Barney Frank, Chuck Schumer are all headed for re-election wins.

Why not Reid?
